Very grateful to the NIH to finally have support and pursue our EBV/covid studies!
Who's calling the shots at NIH? Sworn testimonies and internal e-mails reveal for the first time the breadth of DOGE's control over the world's largest public biomedical funder. DOGE has provided lists of hundreds of grants to cut, and DOGE is now reviewing ALL NIH awards before they're released
NIH killed grants on orders from Elon Musk’s DOGE
Court documents and internal correspondence show the cost-cutting force has broad control over the world’s largest public biomedical funder.

Join me in standing up for science on March 7. in Salem, Oregon! Tell your friends and bring them too!! This is a nation wide event, with every state having at least one gathering. We need to show up strong!!! standupforscience2025.org
Federal grant funding of research is incredibly important to Oregon’s economy and for training the next generation of scientists. Calling on @wyden.senate.gov @repbonamici.bsky.social @salinas.house.gov @repvalhoyle.bsky.social to oppose the EO freezing federal grants!
